s/v Moosetracks: June 2015
http://svmoosetracks.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 3, 2015. We took a walk with Chester and Karen around town while Michael went for a spare part by bus. Amazingly folks seem to react in totally different ways when they see a large dog, either scared to death or needing to pet and cuddle him! It made for a very interesting morning walk and a little fun too. David, Libby and Brody. Admin building for Customs and Immigration. Pirates bay from the trail. Steep steps to the beach. Wonderful soft sand beach. And a beach bar. We hope everyone's...

Saturday, August 16, 2014. Well we have been in Grenada almost 3 months and it’s been a fantastic time to be here. The carnival is the 9-12th August and it’s a real party atmosphere around the island with all the flights in/out being fully booked. A beautiful caterpillar on our walk. A photo stop on our walk - thanks Maggie. Break of Day Parade. Lots of people participate fully. The 'loud as it can be' music trucks. Yes Gregg and Devin got plastered in used motor oil. Some of the children in the parade.

s/v Moosetracks: November 2014
http://svmoosetracks.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 28, 2014. So the following morning we left for St Lucia and Rodney Bay. Raising the Q-Flag in Rodney Bay. The next day we took a local bus to Castries and visited the local markets. On Saturdays there are lots of stalls selling fruits and vegetables as well as fish, meats and souvenirs. We had a very good look at all the stalls and Liz even found several dresses to try on and eventually bought a very nice one. The very good market. Shame about selling Hawksbill Turtle here. They have lot...

Tuesday, December 23, 2014. We left Nevis for St Kitts a whopping 3 miles away, suffice to say it was an easy sail. We anchored at Whitehouse bay by the old ruins which are now a fancy restaurant/bar SALT Plage but it’s only open some evenings and not for lunch so we missed eating there. Liz at Salt Plage. Moosetracks from the restaurant. Christophe marina mega yacht slips almost finished. Christophe Marina inner lagoon. Liz checking out prices! Waterspout on the right end of these downpours. The next bu...

Thursday, June 12, 2014. Tyrrel Bay, Carriacou. Tyrrel Bay is a wide open bay with great protection from the prevailing easterly winds and NE swells so it is pretty flat as anchorages go around the Caribbean. The anchorage looked very full to us as we came in and we tried a couple of spots before settling, after settling in and talking to others they said it often had 50% more boats in it! Joy, Liz and Steve on Ocean Angel. Awesome T-Shirts for sale. Our first walk was with Barb to Manchaneel Bay. View f...

Wednesday, May 13, 2015. Iles des Saintes - Terre-de-Haut. During our last days at Falmouth harbor we had a BBQ on the beach with the cruisers who were still waiting for the end of race week. It was a great night with Steve from s/v Music playing guitar and singing for us. Steve from s/v Music. A great beach BBQ. We took our last walk into St John to visit the museum and do a last minute shop. Devin outside the museum in St John. A throw back to British rule. Devin, Joy and Steve. The steel pan band.
